Heather:
Have you tried to stop exercising for a week. Maybe letting the muscle relax will help, my counselor told me that after gold comes the green that is the one that helps in losing those last 10 or 15 pounds faster. That's what my counselor told me, Iknow some of the girls have better ideas!
Milca - I don't think I should move down - if nothing else I think I'm not getting enough food to be honest. I'm working out pretty hard, just not over 5 hours.
If anything I might need to stay Gold and do a better job being POP - I've had a few cheats, but defiitely not enough to cause this type of gain....
If I was going to try to move plans - Should I move to blue or purple if I continue to do lights?
Oh Milca - I forgot to comment on the exercising - I would love to do that to see if that is what it is - but I'm afraid I would get slack. I didn't exercise while I went to MI for 4 days, cheated one night with calzones and lost 2 lbs - so it is either one of two things - I confused my body that night and then got right back on plan - or it was the stomach virus I caught or b/c I didn't exercise....????
Katie - I was thinking purple too - so I will have to take a look at the purple plan in case I decide to move - I think I might stick with gold for now - just to give my body time to re-regulate after what I've been through. Then If I'm not losing - try to move?? whatcha think? b/c I have been losing on gold for 2 months now?? and exercising too? the same exact amount?????
Heather:
You know what girl, I am so sorry that you are having this hard time, I feel your frustation and I know that you do work really hard on this. I would love to be more helphul and have the proper tools or hints to help you out. I swear that when you get out of the plateau I am going to have a shot of Tequila on your name, girl! (on the plan, of course) For now, a lot of
Let me know when Milca, I'll have a shot with you!!
Heather- My center told me yesterday that sometimes when you hit a plateau, just changing plans for a couple of weeks can break it, then you can go back to your old plan. You know, the theory of changing things up.
Milca - Oh chickie - we can share the tequila together. I'm just hoping that all the body changes are the cause for the stall. In my heart I really feel like Gold was working and will work again. You never know - what works today - might not work tomorrow - so I guess i will just remember the comment from the other board this morning "keep plugging away until something works" whatever it happens to be. I definitely don't want to give up the exercise - it makes me feel healthy and strong and fit
- plus no matter what that scale says - ( yes, mine talks to me - in a real masculine sexy voice every morning ) hahaha .....I know my clothes are fitting better. I even gave all my 14's that I wasn't having altered to my friend that started LAWL a week ago.....I'm in there for the long haul - I just want to see results like everyone else.. ..
Katie,Milca, Barb and everyone -- Thanks for being so supportive - we can do this together.....
I was thinking blue...thats where I started 30 pounds ago (162) and at that time I was working out 4-5 hrs per week, straight cardio. I did blue with lites.
Were all here for you Heather. I'm so proud of you that you are continuing with the exercise as you know it will help with toning your body and helping your clothes to fit better. Now if I'd just get my butt back in gear instead of being so focused on the scale and wanting to meet my first goal by 6/18.
Okay Katie or Deets - what is the diff btw blue and gold - isn't it an extra 1/2 Protein and extra starch?? is that it? are the protein portions the same? according to the plan I have - the protein servings look the same
Thanks for everyone's input - I think I might try the blue for at least a week or two and see what happens....especially since now I'm really 165 according to my evil scale this morning....
You know I was tempted to skip the gym after work today - just to have a break, but after seeing all you guys helping me - I'm definitely going and sweating it out!!!!
Thanks chickie!!! I guess I will start blue tomorrow and see how things go .....please let me see a loss by weds or so - just 1 lb - please??? I'm going to work that elliptical hard tonight!!!
I swear that when you get out of the plateau I am going to have a shot of Tequila on your name, girl! (on the plan, of course)
